Hello,

I’ve got a Metz 45 CL-4 that doesn’t seem to be firing with any camera I connect it to. The test button works and the flash fires but not when plugged into any camera. So I suspect the sync cable is goosed.

I was wondering if anyone knows if I can use the 45-48 cable with it, or if it has to be the 45-47 cable, which I can’t seem to find any spares of online without having to buy a whole flash unit, or if I can use any of the other cables?
